Sweden voted against more power for the far right – but are centrists listening?

Sweden’s parliament rejected a motion that would have granted the far‑right party more influence, a move that critics say signals a dangerous shift. The vote comes amid rising support for Germany’s AfD, prompting European leaders to examine how centrist parties respond. Analysts warn that Sweden’s decision may influence how other democracies balance populist pressures today.
